Pros

My time at Zoom Video Communications was truly meaningful and enriching. The organization cultivated a collaborative and supportive culture, with a friendly environment that made it easy to connect with colleagues across teams. I particularly appreciated the accessibility of senior leadership, which helped foster transparency, open communication, and a strong sense of community.

Cons

As the company evolved and brought in talent from organizations such as Cisco and VMware, there were natural shifts in team dynamics and ways of working. With growth and change often come new perspectives and challenges, and this period was no exception. While it required some adjustment, it also highlighted how organizations continuously adapt as they scale.

Pros

Native C++ client Bar is low for being a domain expert - knowledge the average Silicon Valley engineer should have is somehow in short supply there, so it's easier to stand out Pay was OK, while it lasted

Cons

Repeated rounds of layoffs, with departed colleagues' work being heaped on those remaining, left everyone miserable and stressed and just waiting for when our turn is next. My boss actually announced development was shifting to "startup mode", and when I asked if that means more upside or flexibility or equity or any of the other reasons you may choose a startup over a large established company, the answer was, "no, just more work" (!?!) Serious culture and power divide between overseas and California based development teams. Zero career growth investment in employees; no training or conferences except those offered by Zoom. Fired entire DEI team CEO attended Melania's movie premier
